Default no
real Z06 wheels will require Z06 size tires and they will not fit inside standard fenders.

I was under the impression they will "fit", but will extend out from the fender.

Right before I did my widebody, I put right side tires on just to see how far they stuck out. Here's how far they stick out with stock C6 fenders using stock Z06 tire/wheels combo.
